Overall Thesis
Day before Q2 earnings: shorts pushing 4M shares, Cantor Fitzgerald reiterates $3 hold, and the key unknown is whether Lucid will cut guidance from 20K — which the speaker considers likely.
Narratives
LCIDLucid Motors
MixedThe speaker previews tomorrow's Q2 earnings with cautious optimism. The stock is holding above the 50 and 100-day MAs despite shorts increasing 4M. The speaker believes Lucid may cut guidance from 20K (similar to 2023), and that the reverse stock split is virtually guaranteed to pass given PIF's majority vote. The key test is whether Mark can make a compelling case.
Key Arguments
- Lucid has beaten EPS and revenue estimates 75% of the time over last year
- Bar is set very low — consensus -22c EPS, $264M revenue
- Most important metric will be future guidance and how reverse stock split is explained
- Reverse stock split vote will pass regardless — PIF has majority control
- Post-earnings 260 and 207 are likely price targets depending on direction
